Here's a new acoustic tab for Story Of The Year - Message To The World from their new
album, The Black Swan. THE BEST SONG I HAVE HEARD FROM STOY SINCE ANTHEM OF OUR DYING DAY!!
I just listened to the original and the real acoustic version on YOUTUBE and just made
set of tabs up. It is fairly straightforward.
The singing should be done in a low voice to suit this guitar style. Just check out the
on Youtube and the original to figure out the strumming pattern. I would suggest make
own one up, so it's comfortable to you. But try to make sure you are following the tabs
the lyrics so you know where the breaks are. If you're reading the lyrics above the
it's not that I don't know how to spell, it's just that the break/change in strumming
be around that point of the initial letters of the words of the lyrics.
I'm sorry if the tabs aren't exactly right but hey I'm a novice myself, so just try it
and ENJOY!!!

I will be uploading up a video of my playing this on youtube, it would be under my
user name 'rilu10'.
Here is the lyrics for this song:
Another world collides, will we open the door
A message to the world it seems like
Everyone has a god standing up for what we think we know
Do we know?
We've got so far to go from here
And we've got so much to lose
With American eyes, yeah
And curious hearts, we've got so much to learn
So we find, we find
When you kill me, do it slowly
When we've come undone
When you kill me, please do it slowly
Send a message to the world (A message to the world)
Another war will rise, will we open the floor
Listen to the words it seems like
Everyone has a cause fighting for a world we think we own
But do we know?
We've got so far to go from here
And we've got so much to lose
With American eyes, yeah
And curious hearts, we've got so much to learn
So we find (we find!)
When you kill me, do it slowly
When we've come undone
When you kill me, please do it slowly
Send a message to the world (A message to the world)
Send a message to the world
There's so much more to learn
There's so much more to live for (So much more to live for)
More than we will ever know
It's a message to the world
When you kill me, do it slowly
When we've come undone (It's a message to the world)
When you kill me, please do it slowly
Send a message to the world (A message to the world)
Send a message to the world (A message to the world)
Send a message to the world
Another world collides, will we open the door
